by the way, this is a little bit similar to what is the big goal here of foreign policy, keeping iran from getting a nuke nuclear weapon. the bush administration didn't want to have to deal with that militarily either nor does the obama administration but they realize this is an explosive situation, no good choices, the president has said as he said in the new republic, how does the united states make a difference. for now they have concluded we got to stay in the game enough to keep diplomacy alive. beyond that, any more robust involvement. if the agreement is assad has to go but we're not prepared to actually force him out, then you're on the sidelines and you're trying to tap dance a bit. >> it is fascinating that syria provides the greatest test to what the president's position is on whether he's a neocon or realist, no doubt about it. he believes in sort of subers have covert warfare, but he's a realist. he does not want to send american troops to war. >> a huge change from the past -- >> there's no good -- there's no good decision. >> you know, there's always that madeleine albr

with the evolution of monetary policy, now we are starting to use the interbank rates to tighten. and, you know, it's not entirely surprising because you saw a big inflow of foreign reserves in the country in the third quarter. while on the other hand, you know, you can see that the governments wanted to tighten because, you know, total social financing growth has peaked in may and started to slow down since then. you know, and if you look at money supply growth, i think it's about 14%, which is still slightly higher than the government's target of 13%. so, you know, the fact that they are on a slight tightening bias i don't think entirely surprises us too much. by using the bank rate, i think it shows the evolution of monetary policy. >> where does that evolution take us? >> i guess, i mean, it's related to the growth of the nonbank sector. with reserve requirements, it will affect the banks. but by increasing interest rates, then you start to clamp down with the growth of wealth management products and funding, etcetera, because these nonbanks are basically looking at the interb
